For the last 8 months we have been going through agony trying to help my Father-in-Law, who has Parkinson’s. He has known for years that he has this disease but refused to prepare. I don’t want you to have to walk down the same path we have been. Here are some very important questions to ask your Parents – and don’t stop asking until you get answers.

Where are your assets held? You will want to know where they bank, do they work with a Financial Advisor, who holds their insurance policies, and have they filed their taxes.

What different doctors do they see? What medications do they take, where are their health insurance policies, have they names anyone through a health care directive?

Do you plan on staying in your home? Is the house assessable for a wheelchairs or walker, what type of caregiver can be brought in to help, is everything in working order?

It is a tough conversation to have – but one that must be had.
